WhySoBlue Shark Tank India Negotiations & Funding:

Aman was the first shark to go out because he couldn’t relate to the design language of the brand. Radhika felt like the pricing was too high and it is a very competitive market therefore she goes out as well. Vineeta felt like this would be difficult to scale therefore she went out as well. Peyush goes out because he feels like the business is not yet investable.

Ritesh gives the first and only offer of ₹40 Lakhs for 3% of the company valuing the business at ₹13.33 Crores and ₹35 Lakhs debt at 10% interest for 3 years. The founders accepted that offer without any hesitation.
